I also have some experience in caring for the elderly as I had the opportunity to care for my grandmother for 4 years who stayed with me. Cooked and cleaned for her and helped remind her of her medication at the required times also entertained and took her for walks. I am an avid organizer I can turn any disorganized room into a tranquil, clean and organized space. Give me a try I promise you are going to love me! I am a very friendly and lovable individual, well travelled from my flight attending experience where I had to take care of unaccompanied minors.

Ava $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ava, I'm a New Orleans transplant originally from California. I went to college at University of California Santa Barbara to study Psychology and then ended up working in the film industry as a Director's Guild of America 2nd Assistant Director. I have a younger brother (6 years younger) and grew up babysitting him as well as kids in my neighborhood when I was in high school. In college I worked at a children's pottery painting studio. After college I was also assigned to take care of my boss's 3 children and coordinated their schedules between their separated parents households. My mother was an elementary and middle school teacher and helped me learn how to help tutor children with different ability levels in numbers subjects but my favorites to assist with are still art and math :) I grew up with dogs and adopted a catahoula puppy last summer. I'm also the go to animal sitter for my friends and take care of their cats and dogs while they are traveling.

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
